Question I

I use daily OHLCV USDJPY data (from 2014-01-01 to 2017-01-20) and application of some models to forecast the highest and lowest price :

• Auto Arima models
• Exponential Time Series
• Univariate Garch models
• Exponential Weighted Moving Average
• Monte Carlo Markov Chain
• Bayesian Time Series
• Midas

For the staking model, I simply forecast the highest and lowest price, and then :

• Kelly criterion and using highest or lowest price for closing transaction, otherwise using closing price if the forecasted lowest/highest price is not occur.
• Placed $100 an each of the forecasted variance value and do the settlement based on the real variance value.
